Calories: 530kcal
Equipment
- Microwave
Ingredients
- 1 large cooking apple or 2 eating apples
- 6 tablespoons plain flour also called all-purpose flour
- 4 tablespoons porridge oats also known as rolled oats
- 2 tablespoons demerara sugar or brown sugar
- 1 pinch salt
- 2 tablespoons vegan butter or margarine
Instructions
- Peel, core and chop your apples into chunks.
- Add the apple to a large microwave-safe mug, add 1 tablespoon of water and microwave for 1 minute to start to soften the apple. If the apple is tart, you can add a spoonful of sugar and stir in.
- While the apple is cooking, make the crumble topping. Add the flour, dememera sugar, salt, porridge oats and vegan butter to a large bowl and mix the butter into the flour mixture with your fingertips until it turns into the texture of breadcrumbs.
- Pile the crumble topping onto the apple and pop the mug back into the microwave for 2 minutes. (microwaves do vary in power, so if your microwave is powerful it may be ready in 1-1 1.2 minutes or it may take a little longer. My microwave is a mid-range model.
- Serve with a dollop of vegan vanilla ice cream.
- Enjoy!
Notes
- You can use brown sugar or caster sugar instead of demerara sugar.
- Serve warm with custard or ice cream.
- If you want to serve the crumble in a bowl or plate with custard or cream, you can loosen the sides with a knife, then turn it onto a plate or a bowl.
